soyeon Posted September 5, 2017 Posted September 5, 2017 Have you gotten anything done at regen before? How is it there? Thank you
peri-winkle Posted September 5, 2017 Posted September 5, 2017 Could you tell me what you know about Regen? I'm planning to go there in December to get surgery. Thanks!
scandinavia Posted September 5, 2017 Posted September 5, 2017 Thanks for your review! Me and my friend is considering going to Korea for BA. Loved your B&A photos! Did you get anything else done at Regen? How's the doctors there? No shadow doctors or anything like that...?
watermelon119 Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Has anyone gotten work done from a Korean clinic? I am considering getting a cheekbone reduction but also gonna visit korea in 3 months.
lizluv90 Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 I underwent a zygoma reduction six months ago at Regen as I used to have a bumpy face line because of protruded cheekbones. My face looked super wide from the front and I did not like the symmetry. I actually got my nose and eyes done as well.
watermelon119 Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 I've read about the clinic on a couple of forums and the results were quite impressive, but most of them were breast augmentations and for double-eyelid. What was the surgery like?
lizluv90 Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Well the total time I was under the knife was 1 hour. The prepration and for before and after took maybe 3 hours? They put me under general anesthesia . I had a specialist check my blood and had a few tests done for safety. The surgery was done in like a hospital-like operation room that had a UV rays sterilization system for germ-free ness. So the procedure I got was the full zygoma reduction. The doctor said they have two types, mini zygoma and full zygoma reduction but recommended the full procedure as my cheekbones protruted quite a bit. Before the side of my face would have another angle from my cheek to my chin which is what I didn't like. This procedure corrected that. Which is another reason why I had my work done at REGEN. Their surgeon for this procedure is Oh Myung June who's famous for performing it. Also before I got my consultation there, I went to a smaller scale clinic that was cheaper but they kept saying their was a risk I would have sagging skin (probably a cop to recommend another procedure to correct it). This was never mentioned at REGEN and as you can see from my pic there is 0 sagging. (Before, 2 months later, 2 days ago)
watermelon119 Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 This is exactly what I'm looking for. My face is huge from left to right. What was the recovery like?
lizluv90 Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 Well it isn't a small surgery. My face was swollen but the pain wasn't too bad. I couldn't brush my teeth right after surgery and had to use mouthwash. I was on a porridge diet which actually tastes really good in Korea. Hot and spicy foods had to be avoided. After a couple of weeks, I was told to add a pillow so my upperbody was slightly upright to prevent swelling. I couldn't go to any spa or sauna for a month. 0 exercise 0 alcohol 0 cigarettes for a month. Here is a pic right after the surgery where you can see why i couldnt brush my teeth lol.
watermelon119 Posted September 7, 2017 Posted September 7, 2017 Do you mind I ask where you are from? Your ethnicity I mean. How did you find out about that doctor while outside of Korea?
lizluv90 Posted September 7, 2017 Posted September 7, 2017 I am ethnically vietnamese but I lived in the U.S. my whole life. I am always watching korean dramas and shows. Let me in show is very addicting. I saw a person who had a few procedures have a similar face to mine before the surgery and when I saw her results i think i decided right then and there.
watermelon119 Posted September 7, 2017 Posted September 7, 2017 i really appreciate you telling me all that. Thank you so much.
